std::bad_exception(3)
💖 NAME 💖
std::bad_exception — the exception that shows up when your exception was not on the guest list bestie 💅
This one lives in the Library Functions Manual, and honestly? It's giving "I'm the backup plan" energy and I respect it. 🦋
✨ SYNOPSIS ✨
#include <exception>It inherits std::exception. Yes queen, it's part of the family. 👑
🌸 Public Member Functions 🌸
virtual constexpr const char * what () const noexcept— the one (1) member function, and she delivers. 🎀
🫶 Detailed Description 🫶
Okay so here's the tea ☕: if an exception gets thrown and it is not listed in a function's exception specification, one of these may be thrown. Like, the function said "these are the only exceptions I'm accepting" and your exception walked in anyway without being on the list. Rude? Maybe. But std::bad_exception is literally the bouncer. 💀
Not me getting yeeted for not being in the exception specification 😭 iconic behaviour tbh.
👑 Member Function Documentation 👑
🧚 virtual constexpr const char * std::bad_exception::what () const [inline], [constexpr], [virtual], [noexcept]
Returns a C-style character string describing the general cause of the current error. Fr fr, that's the whole job — she tells you what went wrong in a cute little C-style string. 💜
Reimplemented from std::exception. So she's doing it her way, respectfully. 🌈
